Paranoid Android Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 Animal Collective's new album has recently leaked. Anyone else listened to it yet? It's absolutely awesome. I'm not sure if I think it's their best yet, but it is definitely their most consistent and best flowing record.2009 has already got a better album that any from 2008 and it's not even started yet!!!

Alkaline Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 I went off them after seeing them live. They were exceptionally boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qzdiablo Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 but dude - the lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I've never seen them live and unfortunately I'll be in Barcelona when they play Glasgow next month. Some of the live vids on youtube are great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest idol_wild Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I really liked them when I saw them. Hardly a guitar in sight, which I really appreciated.But that's only because I was blinded by the light show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panda Strong Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I downloaded it but i've not listened yet. Feels was pretty rad, and so was Strawberry Jam. It's ages since i've listened to the earlier stuff...i remember a song about a rabbit? Hmmm. Not seen them live so i can't comment! Love a good light show though, aye.

Paranoid Android Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 This album gets better and better each time I listen to it. There are too many good songs to choose a favourite. Although Im not sure if there are any which are up there with my top AC tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 i thought it was 'a dolby set', cos panda love surround sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Strong Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 hmmmm. seems most of the internet are arguing about it. adobe slabs appears to be winning though."Adobe bricks have particularly good acoustic qualities - dry but bright. Albini used them when he built Electrical Studios, I remember him talking about them to "Mixing It" as some of them were badly damaged in transit. So 4 walls and adobe slabs sounds a bit like Albini's place..."who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tam o' Shantie Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 well i'll just have a look at the lyrics on the insert...oh wait a minute, all it has is the song titles, which are written in such an absurd font that they are utterly illegible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest treader. Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I've only ever heard one Animal Collective song. I should probably sort my life out and get this as everyone I know is raving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
